Anesthetic Accessories

Accuject Needles

  • Each box contains 100 Sterile Needles.
  • Needles are imprinted with a red dot that indicates the needle’s bevel position before cap is removed, reducing potential for inadvertent needle sticks and ensuring injection accuracy.
  • Even when the needle’s point is below the gum line, the red dot shows the bevel position.
  • Needles are designed with a pre-threaded plastic hub for use with standard dental syringes.
  • Stability is maximized through exterior self-tapping ribs and interior threading.
  • Needles are packaged in sterile, non-pyrogenic, individual color-coded unit containers.
  • Color-coded plastic hubs and boxes allow for quick, easy identification.
  • Every Accuject needle is optically inspected and ethylene oxide sterilized.

Jenker Needle Recapper

The Jenker Needle Recapper is a receptacle for holding the needle cap for one-handed recapping after injection. Use of the Jenker Needle Recapper can prevent accidental needle stick injuries and eliminate a source of cross contamination of infectious diseases.
